Energising the Skin with Natural Facial Toners - Summer Natural Beauty Edit

Desperately hoping for the summer to finally settle under our latitude we have gone and searched for products that are becoming more and more in demand due to their wonderful properties - natural facial toners. Whereas you must have used a toner before, to balance your skin's ph levels to its natural measures of 5.5 as quickly as possible after main cleansing, the toners we are covering in this edit have way more to offer. Take a look at our selection of exciting botanical waters from around the world..


 1. NILLY+BOOTH from Australia offers an Organic Face Tonic and we love the unique botanical constituents that make this blissful remedy. Detoxifying Rooibos, disinfectant Black Willow Bark, revitalising Gotu Kola, purifying Apple and Kiwi Extracts blended into a base of Tea Tree, Lemon Myrtle, Witch Hazel and Sandalwood hydrosols pack a punch of skin balancing and protecting qualities. Recommended to use after cleansing or as a refreshing skin energiser, Nilly+Booth is sure to become your little secret to a beautifully glowing complexion. Read more HERE

Behind Nilly+Booth stands Sharn who decided to forgo her career in psychology and become a natural skincare creator after a major existential crisis had entered her life and pushed her to chase after what she wanted to do. Inspirational.



2. If you are a city girl or have difficulties finding a beauty product that would protect your skin from harsh elements effectively, then you need to check Orico Coco Spritz from London. It is a part of Streetwise line that specifically targets the skincare needs of urban living. Having recognised the hazards of pollution, stress, central heating or air conditioning Orico came up with a brilliant protective facial toner - Coco Spritz. With its pure formula of Coconut Water, Cocoa Seed and Extracts of Mango and Papaya, this multitasking mist restores the skin's natural radiance whilst deeply purifying, hydrating, nourishing, and boosting micro circulation.

It is suitable for even the most sensitive skin and combines the natural goodness of Wild Yarrow and Rose Geranium Essences. One of the purest products available, it offers highly moisturising and balancing benefits.

First day of Autumn and three simple steps to a glowing skin

With temperatures dropping dramatically at night and cooler air making you wear another layer of clothing, it's about time to think how to look after your skin and keep the beautiful summer glow.

Here are a few important points for you to consider:

1. GO ORGANIC

I am a relentless campaigner for going organic when it comes to beauty products. This is because standard beauty products that do use synthetics and harsh chemicals fail to deliver hydration or nourishment as they interfere with your skin's natural functions and handicap its ability to automatically  adjust to different factors like changing weather for instance. 
With organic or free from synthetic substances products on the other hand, you are delivering the support for your skin's normal functions, you nourish your cells with all the potent nutrients and maximize your chances to enjoy healthy and glowing complexion.

Pamper Point says:

Go for natural facial oils as  overnight treatments to nourish your skin and a natural plant butter based cream for the day to protect it from dryness and irritations. This rule applies to all skin types, but generally herb or seeds derived oils work better for oily or combination, whereas nut or fruit derived oils are good  for normal to dry complexions.


2. DELIVER OXYGEN

Once you busted all the harsh ingredients out of your beauty products, and have your skin working in a balanced way,  it's time to think of the next step - let it breathe deeper by keeping active. Normally I'd be ranting about going all out and training hard, in this case, I would like to suggest you take on regular walks and other medium intensity outdoor activities to pump the oxygen into your skin's cells and give your face and body almost new lease of life, yes, it's that simple. Oxygen delivers nutrients into the tiniest parts of our bodies, if the cells are properly nourished from the inside, they react better to the products applied on the outside.







3. MAKE YOUR EVENING ROUTINE A PAMPER EXPERIENCE

Autumn is the season to turn  your evening skincare regime into longer sessions of relaxation and pampering. There's no better way for a woman to reconnect with her beautiful self than a luxurious bath bursting with comforting aromas. It's the season when warming face masks should be applied more regularly to unwind and deliver even more protection against colder months. This is also  the time to really get your top to toe organic balms and butters application an every day habit, contrary to the common practice of neglecting all the covered areas. Why? Imagine the feeling of confidence and satisfaction knowing your body is in top condition under the layers of  clothing - all that effort for yourself only, well, you and your partner. Exclusive glow I'd call it.
